Interested in learning more about the meaningful and active engagement of patients, family members and caregivers in health care decisions to improve the quality of care for all? Join us for an online four-part Patient Engagement Learning Series from 12:00 – 1:00 PM every second Wednesday of the month starting in February!

Presenters: Cathy Almost & Tina Miller

Description:

To learn more about culturally safe and appropriate ways to engage Indigenous patient partners, join us for a webinar where we’ll interact with a resource tool kit that teaches culturally safe behaviours to help you and your organization. All the ideas being presented are wrapped around culturally safe principles that emerged from dialogues with our Indigenous patient partners who gave their voices to create the resource guide and pamphlet.

Learning Objectives:

  • Consider key factors for the culturally safe and appropriate facilitation of patient engagement.
  • Apply specific actions to improve Indigenous relationship-building and support cultural safety in Indigenous patient engagement.
  • Locate and understand how to utilize the BC Patient Safety & Quality Council’s new resources on culturally safe engagement.

The bottom line is because we’re caring for patients. People who know best are those who are receiving the care so it makes logical sense that we would consult with them about their experiences. By connecting with PVN we have been able to educate our teams about the value of patient partners and how important their perspective is in our services.
